| Lyrics: | Hey hey hey! Santa Buddy Man it's Christmas Eve Hey! Santa Buddy Man I still believe In mistletoe and the ruby red glow Of Rudolph leading your sleigh Hey hey hey! Santa Buddy Can I bend your ear Hey! Santa Buddy What you got in there? In that sack for me and my baby For Christmas, christmas day We got a yule log on the fire We got egg nog chilling on ice My baby's putting on her Christmas stockings They're a little bit naughty, but oh so nice Hey hey! Santa buddy I ain't always good But hey! Santa buddy I still think you should Cut me some slack and I'll pay you back By being a real good boy next year We got a yule log on the fire We got egg nog chilling on ice My baby's putting on her Christmas stockings They're a little bit naughty, but oh so nice Hey hey! Santa buddy Please don't leave C'mon Santa buddy Man, it's Christmas Eve Cut me some slack and I'll pay you back By being a real good boy next year I'll be a real good boy next year Hey hey hey! Santa Buddy Hey hey hey! Santa Buddy Hey hey hey! Santa Buddy Hey hey hey! |

Buddy Moncrief
Somewhere out on New Route 66, about 50 miles west of Sinatra and 75 miles east of Tom Waits, Swanson struts his swingin' and singin'. He loves Dave Frishberg songs and Johnny Walker in a tumbler. He'd like to hear Kurt Elling cover Stone Temple Pilots. Lonnie Johnson is God.
On his latest full-length release "We Can't Party Like We Used To" (2009 Acoustic SwaneeLand), Swanson pounds out 12 original vocal jazz cuts with a cool retro vibe. His bluesy vocals and tasty guitar licks remind of crooners past and present - Sinatra, Cole, John Pizzarelli come to mind - but his clever songwriting has a leaner, edgier feel to it that puts him squarely in the current century.
